Newly remodeled Upstairs 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment in a triplex. Private balcony. Family friendly with plenty of trailer parking, so bring your boats, and off road toys. We are about 5-10 minutes from a couple of different boat launches, biking/walking path, and Lake Barkley Sate park (with a very nice beach). We are 5 minutes from the Dollar General, a gas station, & about 20 minutes to town.
Welcome to The Fuzziesquirel 2 also known as the Fuzzie Flamingo.
This is the upstairs unit of a triplex (#3). Currently only one other unit is being rented out (#1). This unit is upstairs and very private. It has a private balcony to enjoy the outdoors.
Close to Land Between the Lakes, Lake Barkley and boat ramps. Plenty of good hunting, fishing, boating, 4-wheeling, hiking, and outdoorsy stuff around us. There is a nice walking trail behind the house.
There is a coffee bar with coffee, creamer, sugar, etc. we know how important coffee is! We also have a leave a mug take a mug fun thing to do. You can take a coffee mug as a memory of your stay, but you MUST leave a coffee mug. (And only the mugs, nothing else.) We love seeing the unique mugs people leave behind!
My parents have a dog. His name is Tucker. He is the most well mannered and trained dog I have ever met. He is very friendly and LOVES to play fetch with anything people will throw for him. He will probably bring you something to throw while you are here. He roams the property freely, and has never been a problem. People leave comments about how much they enjoyed him.
We like to make it feel homey and decorate for the Holidays (but we don’t go overboard lol)
We do all the cleaning ourselves to make sure it is done right and up to our standards. We also wash all the towels and linens in free and clear soaps, and free and clear oxiclean.
Guests have access to the whole property. There is a shared fire pit in the backyard, each unit has a front patio area, there is a small stream on 2 sides and a walking trail behind the property.
The owners (my parents) live on the property most of the time, and are there if you need them, but will give you your privacy. You can also reach me if you need anything. If you can’t get a hold of me you can always knock on their door and they will be glad to help. They live in the 5th wheel off to the side. This is one unit of a triplex. We are still renovating one of the other units, so you will probably see us around working to make the property even better for you!
It is a work in progress. We are constantly improving the inside and outside of our property to make it better for you.
There is a $10 per night extra cleaning fee for stays over 5 days due to longer stays requiring a much longer and deeper clean. There is very limited cell service and AT&T works the best if you have it. We do have “high speed” Wi-Fi and cable to watch TV.
If you are planning on bringing a boat or trailer please give us a heads up so that we can make sure to have a space designated for you.
We are in the country, and there are the usual country bugs. Bugs are normal in the country, so please do not be alarmed. We are in a rural area. We do have neighbors, but not a ton. There is wifi but, very limited cell service, AT&T works the best. But little cell service means you can truly “unplug” and enjoy nature.
You can also hear the neighbors shooting their guns every so often. I know for those who aren’t used to country life this can be concerning, do not worry, it is normal here. People like to target practice in their back yards.
Again we are in the country, so you will probably see wild critters of all kinds, from deer and bald eagles, to mice and snakes. It is the country and no amount of “pest control” will control Mother Nature.
